TOUR PROGRAM
DAY 1: MARMARIS – RHODES CATAMARAN JOURNEY – PANORAMIC CITY TOUR – OLD TOWN – HOTEL CHECK-IN
We meet at Marmaris Cruise Port at 08:00 in the morning and complete our passport procedures. We set sail towards the blue of the Aegean Sea with our catamaran departing at 09:15. After a pleasant journey of about one hour, we dock at Rhodes Port and step onto the island through the gate of the Middle Ages. We settle into our vehicle waiting for us in Rhodes and begin our panoramic island tour with our guide. Our first stop is Mandraki Port, where the legendary Colossus of Rhodes once stood… We greet the island's history with the deer statues and traces of knights at the entrance of the port. Next, we get a panoramic view of the Murat Reis Mosque, Elli Beach with its pristine shore, and the Aquarium area where the two sides of the sea meet.
We pass through Kritika (Cretan Quarter), where Turks from Crete settled for a period, and then reach Monte Smith Hill, one of the most impressive viewpoints on the island. Here, we see both the modern face of the New City and the walled Old City in the same frame, capturing magnificent photographs.
Afterwards, we move on to the Ancient Acropolis of Rhodes, with its history dating back to the 3rd century BC. We see the ruins of the Temple of Apollo and the Ancient Stadium, witnessing the island's rich history up close. Then we turn our route towards the Old Town, the heart of Rhodes.
The moment we step through the historic city gates, time slows down. As we walk through the stone streets, we feel the traces of the Knights of St. John. We explore structures such as the Street of the Knights, the Grand Master's Palace, the Archaeological Museum, the Ahmet Ağa Library, the Ottoman Madrasa and Baths, the Mustafa Pasha Mosque, the Ibrahim Pasha Mosque, the Clock Tower, the Cem Sultan House, and the Turkish School, all with a guide's explanation. Walking along Socrates Street, one of the island's liveliest spots, we enjoy the aroma of coffee under the shade of centuries-old trees. Finally, we reach Hippocrates Square (Fountain Square) and complete our Old Town tour.
At the end of the day, we check into our centrally located hotel. The evening offers free time to explore the island at our own pace under the lights of Rhodes. (RHODES ACCOMMODATION) 3* ATHENA HOTEL

DAY 2: FREE TIME / EXPLORATION OF SYMI ISLAND & GREEK NIGHT FOR THOSE WHO WISH
After breakfast at our hotel, we offer free time to experience Rhodes at your own pace. Since we explored the stone streets of the Old Town and the panoramic views of the island on the first day, today you have the opportunity to enjoy Rhodes more freely. You can walk along the coast, shop, sip your coffee overlooking the sea at the harbor cafes, or feel the tranquility of the island in the shadow of the city walls.
For those who wish: Symi Island
For our guests who want to take the island experience a step further, today offers the opportunity to explore two Greek islands in one holiday.
SIMI TOUR: PANORAMITIS MONASTERY, MARATHOUNDA BEACH, AGIA MARINA BEACH, LA STRADA (Stairway), MARKET AND CHURCHES
We will meet in the lobby at the time announced by our guide and proceed to Rhodes port for the Simi ferry. After a beautiful sea voyage in the clear waters of the Aegean, pastel-colored houses greet us like a trinket. The fairytale island of Simi (Sömbeki), as if painted by a famous artist, will enchant you. Among the places we will see during our tour are:
Kali Strata Road: Originally intended to give the wealthy population of the island the chance to walk home in a winding and pleasant environment, this road, in its well-maintained state, gives visitors the same feeling as it did back then. This well-maintained road takes us on an adventure between the villages of Gialos and Chorio and also offers the opportunity to enjoy the magnificent scenery and architecture of the island. We believe you'll be able to capture some beautiful images of the island's characteristic structure and texture during this trip.
Nimborio District: This area, which boasts one of the island's calmest beaches, offers the opportunity to discover one of Simi's natural beauties.
Panormitis Holy Monastery: The village of Panormitis, southwest of the main town, is home to Simi's main monastery. Dedicated to the Archangel Michael, it is said to have been built on the ruins of an ancient temple, although this has not been proven. After receiving valuable information about the monastery from our guide, we complete this visit. After completing our tour, we return to Rhodes by ferry. Our accommodation will again be at our hotel in Rhodes city center. (3* ATHENA HOTEL)

TOUR PACKAGE PRICE: €60.00 (hotel-port transfer, round-trip ferry tickets to Simi Island, Turkish-speaking guide service) (Children aged 2-12: €30.00)
NOTE: Guests participating in the Simi tour must make a reservation and payment to our agency before the trip in order to purchase ferry tickets.

Evening: Greek Night
In the evening, guests who wish can experience the most vibrant side of the island's culture.
SIRTAKI NIGHT: We experience a true island entertainment with live Greek music, carefully prepared dinner and drinks. As the Sirtaki rhythms rise, we join in the dancing and feel the energy of the Aegean night to the fullest. Sirtaki Night Price: €60.00 (including hotel-restaurant transfer, seafood menu, 2 glasses of alcoholic/non-alcoholic drink, and live music)
NOTE: Guests who will participate in the Greek Night must inform our agency of their reservation status before the trip.

DAY 3: FREE TIME – RHODES – MARMARIS CATAMARAN TRIP

We begin the day with breakfast at our hotel. Today, we offer you free time to enjoy Rhodes one last time before our departure.

Since we explored the historical and panoramic points of the island together on the first day, and had the opportunity to experience Rhodes at your own pace on the second day, today gives you the chance to return to your favorite spots before saying goodbye to the island. Guests who wish can take one last walk through the stone streets of the Old Town, shop on Socrates Street, have a coffee break in Hippocrates Square, or enjoy a pleasant stroll along the sea around Mandraki Harbor. Alternatively, guests can enjoy the sea and sun around Elli Beach.
After these enjoyable hours spent in the peaceful atmosphere of Rhodes, we will meet at our hotel at the time determined by our guide and proceed to the harbor. After completing our passport procedures, we take our places on our catamaran and return to Marmaris with a pleasant journey on the blue Aegean Sea. We say goodbye, hoping to meet again on another Koral Tourism organized trip.
NOTE: For those who wish, our guide will inform you during the trip about the possibility of organizing an extra trip to the Lindos region, provided there is sufficient participation. Guests who want to explore the white houses, narrow streets, and unique bays of Lindos can participate in this organized trip. It offers the opportunity to see St. Paul's Bay, which has one of the most beautiful views of the island, to walk through the streets adorned with bougainvillea, and for those who wish, to climb to the Lindos Acropolis and look down on the Aegean Sea from above. Lindos, one of the most romantic and photogenic spots in Rhodes, is a very special alternative for guests who want to turn their island holiday into an unforgettable memory.
